A sign in EE

The slurs of GE

Slurs in FE (probable reading)

Slurs in FE (possible reading→EE)

..

The slurs that appear at the transition between bars 38-39 and 40-41 are drawn in a manner that makes them ambiguous. In the main text we give the interpretation of the slurs of A, confirmed by the addition made in FES. The slurs of GE offer another possible interpretation of A. We interpret the unclear slurs of FE in the manner that is closer to the notation of A; a different option was chosen in EE (based on FE).
