No slur in JC

Beginning of slur in EF, more likely reading of PE

Other reading of slur in PE

Taking into consideration the beginning of the slur in PE, one could have doubts concerning its starting point; whether it starts from the 1st or the 2nd note. In the main text we propose a more natural reading of this detail, according to us, compatible with the slur given in EF. Cf. bars 80-81.
