FE overlooked the  restoring e1 on the 5th R.H. quaver. The accidental was added in EE; it was also entered into FEJ, probably by Chopin.

Long, tied grace note in A

Short, not tied grace note in FC (→GE)

, no grace note in FE (→EE1)

 & grace note in EE2

..

We reproduce the grace note and the curved lines in principle after the notation of A, in which, however, the slur running from the grace note to the f2 minim is led under the notes and overlaps with the tie of the grace note, pointing downwards. It confused the interpreters of A:

  • in FC (→GE) the copyist omitted both slur and tie and provided the grace note with a conventional form of a slashed quaver, which was typical of him;
  • the engraver of FE (→EE1) combined the grace note and the overlapping slur and tie in one mark – .

EE2 supplemented the FE version with a grace note taken from GE1.

The slur combining the grace note with the f2 minim in A was omitted in all the remaining sources. See the note below.

In FE (→EE) we can see an  mark at the beginning of the bar. It is a result of misunderstanding the notation of A – see the preceding note.
