b. 139-142

composition: Op. 39, Scherzo in C♯ minor

..

EE does not have a single tie in the R.H. part ion those bars. This is doubtless due to oversight on the part of the engraver (or a copyist, if  a copy was used as a base text for EE).

b. 139-140

composition: Op. 42, Waltz in A♭ major

Rest in FE

Tied sixth in GE & EE
..

The version of FE without the hold of the e-c1 sixth is earlier – in FEG (→GE) Chopin added the ties and a crotchet at the beginning of bar 140. An identical addition was most probably performed by him in the base text to EE. Due to this fact we adopt it to the main text. However, it should be mentioned that while proofreading the slurring of this phrase in FE1, Chopin ended the slur in bar 139 and did not add the hold of this sixth. Hence, the version of FE1 cannot be considered as definitely rejected.

b. 139

composition: Op. 38, Ballade in F major

b1 in A (→EE,GC→GE)

No b1 in FE
..

The lack of b1 results most probably from misunderstanding the notation of A by the engraver of FE.

b. 139-140

composition: Op. 42, Waltz in A♭ major

..

In GE1 the slur was erroneously led up to the 3rd crotchet, from which the new slur starts simultaneously. A relevant correction was performed already in GE2 (→GE3).

b. 139

composition: Op. 38, Ballade in F major

Slur in A (→EE,GC→GE) & FE2 (→FE3)

No slur in FE1
..

The lack of slur is certainly an oversight, corrected in FE2 (→FE3).
