  b. 40

A dot in A (→GE)

Absence of any sign in FE (→EE)

A dot over the last quaver, entered in A (→GE), is barely visible in FE and looks like a trace of removal of a dot once printed there. The sign is absent altogether from EE . It seems improbable that the version with a dot just over the first of the two quavers could correspond to Chopin's intentions  – cf. similar motifs in bars 17, 37 and 41.
