  b. 144-145

Slur from 5th quaver in A (→FE→EE,GE1op,GE1no2)

Slur from 6th quaver in GE2op (→GE3op) & GE2no2

Shifting the beginning of the slur to the last quaver in bar 144 is a revision of later GE, most probably in analogy to bars 16-17, in which the editions misinterpreted the notation of FE.
