No slur in A

4-quaver slur in GE1 (→FEEE)

3-quaver slur in GE2

The absence of the last of the three-quaver slurs in the L.H. is almost certainly Chopin's oversight. The slur was added in GE1 (→FEEE), by embracing the entire 2nd half of the bar with it. According to us, the addition can come from Chopin; however, it was most probably misinterpreted by the engraver. In GE2 the slur was shortened after previous figures, which we give in the main text as probably corresponding to Chopin's intention.
