In A, the R.H. part in the entire 2nd half of the bar was deleted and rewritten on the stave above. Insofar as it is possible to interpret the legible fragments, the change probably concerned the rhythmic issues only – it can be seen that the first 8 notes of the roulade were provided with semiquaver beams, 4 notes each, as in the 1st half of the bar. The corrections were carried out in two stages: first, Chopin deleted the final fragment of the roulade, which he then rewrote at the end of the line; it was only then that he deleted the entire 2nd half of the bar.
