In GE the ending of the slur in bar 99 (at the end of a line) can be considered a tenuto slur. However, it is most probably an inaccuracy – the slur was either supposed to reach bar 100, as it is in A, or the f category imprint: Differences between sources issues: Inaccuracies in GE , Inaccuracies in FE , EE inaccuracies , Tenuto slurs , |

When interpreted literally, the A slur is not related to the phrase structure, which raises doubts as to its range, particularly in the face of numerous other examples of inaccurate slurs in this manuscript (e.g. in bars 96-97). Due to the above, in the main text we provide the interpretation of this slur as adopted by GE (→FE,EE,IE), which is a reasonable compromise between the actual range of the phrase, confirmed by the R.H. slur, and the actual notation (cf. also the L.H. slur in a similar context in bars 112-114). category imprint: Differences between sources issues: Inaccurate slurs in A , GE revisions |

..
When interpreted literally, the A slur reaches the last note in the bar. However, in the next bar, in a new line, the slur clearly shows that it should have been continued, which is also confirmed by the slurs in the similar situations in bars 126-127 and 128-130. This ambiguous notation was reproduced in GE and EE2 (in EE1 the slur was omitted). In FE and IE there is a continuous slur, in accordance with our interpretation. category imprint: Graphic ambiguousness |

The A slur reaches almost the bar line, yet its shape rather does not suggest that it was intended to be led to E, as it was reproduced in GE (→FE,EE,IE). Cf. the slurs in bar 127 and 130. category imprint: Graphic ambiguousness; Differences between sources issues: Inaccuracies in GE , Inaccurate slurs in A |

..
When interpreted literally, the A slur begins from b. However, the shape of the slur suggests e as the intentional starting point of the slur, and this is how it was reproduced in the editions. We adopt this phrasing, more natural in this context, also to the main text. FE and IE assumed that the imprecise ending of the slur in GE (→EE) reaches the last quaver in the bar. category imprint: Graphic ambiguousness; Differences between sources issues: Inaccuracies in GE , Inaccurate slurs in A , GE revisions , FE revisions , |
