Among numerous versions of phrasing of the part of the L.H. only two versions of slurring – FE and EE – may be considered as authentic and complete. GC is compatible with EE, however, it lacks the slur in bar 61, which is undoubtedly an inaccuracy; the slurring was then recreated in GE1, with a minor change in bar 62. In GE2 (→GE3), the missing slur in bar 61 was added, by beginning the slur in bar 62 earlier, which is an arbitrary revision. In the main text we give the unquestionable version of EE, while as an alternative version we suggest the clearly different version of FE, in which we replace the slur in bar 62, perhaps inaccurate, with the slur present in GC and EE.
