The slur in the R.H. ends in A in bar 158. It is likely that the composer forgot about the slur's continuation after passing to a new line; the slur was not added in any of the editions. category imprint: Editorial revisions issues: Errors of A , Uncertain slur continuation |

FE1 overlooked L.H. slurs in this bar and the two following ones. Chopin supplemented slurring with one slur encompassing bars 161-164 while proofreading FE2 (→FE3). That slur runs from the beginning of bar 161, contrary to A and similar bars 157 and 159. Hence, the engraver might have misplaced the beginning of slur inscribed by Chopin. The later beginning of slur may be regarded as an equivalent variant. The EE version results most likely from an inaccurate reading of A, despite its conformity to FE2. category imprint: Interpretations within context; Differences between sources issues: Errors in FE , Authentic corrections of FE |

The continuousslur in FE2 (→FE3), reaching the minim in bar 164, results certainly from Chopin's correction, hence we give this version in the main text. However, it should be noted that Chopin did not changed the shorter slurs of A, and only differently supplemented the slurring overlooked in FE1. The version of A (→GC→GE) may be considered an equivalent variant. The EE version may be regarded as an alternative reading of the slurs in A. category imprint: Differences between sources issues: Errors in FE , Authentic corrections of FE |
