Arpeggios from a1 in AsI

Arpeggios from c2 in A

As in bars 1-2 and 5-6, in AsI Chopin kept the position of the hemidemisemiquaver figures, in spite of the melody semiquavers, which are each time farther away. In the final version, he reduced the distance between the melody semiquavers and the preceding arpeggio-like figures. The same in bar 23.
