legato in Ap

sempre legato in FE (→GE,EE) 

In the main text we give sempre legato written by Chopin twice (in bars 1 and 5) in FEcor (→FE→GE,EE). In Ap Chopin was satisfied with legato in bar 1, which, however, seems to concern also the accompanying voice or even only the lower voice, as there are slurs over the upper line of semiquavers.
