Long accent in A (→FE)

No mark in FC (→GE)

Short accent in EE

The missing accent in FC (→GE) must be a result of an oversight of the copyist. The short accent in EE is a typical revision of that edition, in which the majority of long accents were interpreted as diminuendo markings or short accents.
