I think it means that those two bars are repeated. I've seen this marking before, though I don't recall in which pieces, but I'm fairly certain they were keyboard works.

Since it's a chaconne, would repeating those bars greatly distrupt the ground, or does it serve to prolong the cadence so the listener knows the work is coming to an end?

How do you interpret this sign? It comes at the end of a chaconne where the theme is 2x8 measures (D to A, A back to D). As a repeat?

Thanks,

Dennis
