No slur in AI

Slur from bar 12 in A (contextual interpretation)

Slur from bar 13 in FE (→EE,GE1op,GE1no2)

Slur from beginning of bar 12 in GE2op (→GE3op) & GE2no2

On the available photocopy of A, the slur in bar 12 starts from the 3rd quaver. We shift the beginning one quaver earlier, analogously to bar 10. In FE (→EE,GE1op,GE1no2) the slur starts – undoubtedly erroneously – only in bar 13, however in bar 140, based on the notation of bar 12 in A, the slur of FE begins exactly on the 2nd quaver of the bar, which supports the solution we adopted. In later GE, the starting point of the slur was moved to the beginning of bar 12, most probably by analogy to the notation of bars 140-141 in GE.
