  b. 153-155

Continuous slur in A (→GC→GE)

New slur from bar 154 in FE

New slur from bar 155 in EE

Discontinuous slurs in FE and EE are probably inaccurate due to the line breaks in A and FE. The engraver of FE presumably reproduced a slur over the last two bars in a line, what corresponds to bars 153-154 in A, but 154-155 in FE. The slurs in EE result most likely from misinterpretation of a slur which is notated over two lines in A.
