Repetition of b. 1-8 in AsI

No repetition of b. 1-8 in A

In AsI the first 8 bars are repeated, which is indicated by two versions (volte) of bar 8, out of which the first one constitutes a link between bar 7 and 1, while the other is a counterpart of bar 8 in A. There are no standard repeat signs; Chopin only placed a double bar line after bar 8 (1. volta) (in this manuscript all repetitions are marked in a way similar to this).
A similar situation is to be found in bars 9-24.
