Slur to f2 in A (literal reading→GE1→FE)

Slur up to e2 in A, contextual interpretation

Slurs in both hands in EE & GE2

The slur of A, although unfinished in bar 7 on a new page, clearly leads to the crotchet at the beginning of the bar, which was not reproduced in the editions. The slur of the L.H., added in EE and GE2, is certainly inauthentic.
