  b. 116-117

Slur to sixth in bar 117 in A & GE2

Slur to end of bar 116 in GE1 (→FE→EE)

Division of the slur at the bar line is a typical arbitrary decision of GE1 (→FE→EE). Moreover, a staccato dot was overlooked in bar 117, which completely distorted the image of phrasing in this fragment. In GE2 the slur was led to the quaver in bar 117, in accordance with A.
