In A one can see a crossing-out between the  and the 3rd quaver. It was most probably the  before a that was removed (superfluous), yet it seems that, for some reason, Chopin also crossed out the correctly written f-a third, which he then reintroduced next to it. If it was so, the reason could have been, e.g. accidentally blurred noteheads, even partially, as a side effect of removing the natural.

In the main text we add a cautionary  before g. The accidental was also added in EE.

In FE the  before the 2nd quaver is misplaced: it should be before the bottom note (g), not the top one (e1). The mistake possibly stemmed from the graphical similarity between b. 5 and 6. The correct accidental was added in FES, while FC (→GE) and EE not only added the right flat, but also removed the wrong one.

The sources do not contain an accidental before the top note of the third on the 4th quaver in the bar, as a result of which it should be interpreted as e-g. It must be Chopin's inadvertence – the characteristic f(-d1) – e-g e-a sequence appears 10 times throughout the Prelude (excluding this place), always with g, even when it is preceded by a g-e sixth (in b. 41). Analogous sequences are to be found on a number of occasions also in other harmonic contexts, always with a minor third on the second quaver. Therefore, Chopin was fully entitled to consider the  to be obvious in this place.
