Long accent in A (→FE), literal reading

Short accent in A (contextual interpretation) & GE

Vertical accent in EE

In this place, the accent of A is clearly longer than the remaining ones, which was even reproduced by FE. In spite of that, in the main text we suggest a short accent, since we assume that an accidental inaccuracy is more likely. The vertical accent of EE is an arbitrary change, compliant with the manner of that edition – cf. b. 41-43.
