Draft 9a is of the exposition to the development sections. Beginning on page 47, stave 6-7, it continues above it to staves 4 - 5, then on to stave 9 (the crossed-out version), to stave 10, to stave 11 - 12, to stave 13 - 14, finally continuing to page 48, staves 1 and 2. Upon going through page 48, it continues through the whole of page 49 (choosing a clean reading among the alternatives), and on to page 50. It finally ends taking the cancelled version of the cadence on staves 7 - 8.
