Slur from bar 77 in A

Slur from bar 78 in GE (→FEEE)

A later beginning of the slur over the final motif of the first phrase of the theme may be a result of Chopin's proofreading – cf. a similar correction of the slur in analogous bars 3-4. However, an inaccuracy is also highly likely: the slur of GE (→FEEE) starts from the beginning of the bar, which was clearly preferred by the engraver of GE1. See the note below.
