4 staccato dots in A

32 wedges in GE (→FE,EE)

32 wedges & dots suggested by the editors

The addition of markings to the L.H. part seems justified and could be coming from Chopin as such. According to us, however, it does not mean that the dots entered into A should be changed to wedges – the markings added in a proof copy (perhaps by Chopin) were either misinterpreted or the person who added them (perhaps Chopin) used wedges to match the already printed wedges. Therefore, in the main text we include the added markings; however, we keep the differences between them modelled after the authentic markings in the R.H. part and in a certain sense confirmed by the L.H. dots in A in bar 208.
