2 slurs in A

No slurs in GE1 (→FEEE)

3 slurs in GE2

2 slurs suggested by the editors

L.H. slur after A & GE2

The missing slurs are most probably a mistake of the engraver of GE1 (→FEEE). In the main text, we suggest slurs modelled on the slurs of A, yet adapted to the changed division of chords into voices (the change was performed in FE (→EE), most probably by Chopin). GE2 repeated the slurs of A, adding another one, for the bottom pair of dyads on the top stave. 

If in bar 53 the version with harmonic accompaniment was chosen, the last of the given versions is to be selected here.
