According to us, the notation of A clearly suggests a continuation of the  hairpin in bar 111, which was not written out, in accordance with a sign corresponding it in bar 3. In the editions, however, it was only the sign in bar 110 that was more or less accurately reproduced.

b. 161-165

composition: Op. 64 No 3, Waltz in A♭ major

3 slurs in A (→FE→GE1op,GE1Ab)

4 slurs in EEC

3 slurs in EEW1 (→EEW2)

1 slur in GE2op (→GE3op) & GE2Ab
..

In the main text, we give the undoubtedly authentic slurring of A (→FE→GE1op,GE1Ab). The same slurring was inaccurately reproduced in EEC. In turn, two remaining versions bear traces of intentional changes, arbitrary, although, from the practical point of view, quite accurate (particularly EEW).
