As, 1st version

As, 2nd version

Later version

In these bars, AI continues a phrase which was shaped clearly differently than in the subsequent sources. At the same time, from bar 64 two versions are recorded, both deleted, out of which one is closer to the final version, particularly in terms of harmony. In the version editors we give, however, the second one, as from the notation of the sketch it results that it was written later than the first one. The version cannot be reasonably combined with the variants, concerning the pitch and rhythm, of the later version, e.g., in bars 66 and 67.
