No slur in GC (→GE) & EE

Slur for lower voice in FE, contextual interpretation

The slur embracing the phrase in the middle voice was added by Chopin most probably in the proofreading of FE. The sign is, however, inaccurately placed – in bar 58, ending a line of the text, the slur begins on the stave, yet its continuation in bars 59-60 is under the stave, which hinders its interpretation. In the analogous place in bars 78-80, the slur is already clearly placed.
