  b. 95-96

Staccato chord in AI

Tenuto chord in FE (→GE,EE)

In an earlier version (AI), the dominant chord, played staccato, contrasts with the following tonic chord, held for almost 3 bars. While preparing the Mazurka for print, Chopin standardised the articulation of all accompanying chords in bars 95-99, and this is the version we give in the main text.
