2 slurs in A

1 slur in GE (→FE)

Slur over triplet in EE

In the main text we reproduce precisely the notation of A, since it seems to be unlikely that Chopin would like to combine these slurs in one – see bars 171-172. The version of GE (→FE) can be considered to be an acceptable interpretation of the notation of A. The version of EE, unified with the notation of analogous bars 172 and 174, adopted from FE, must be – in the light of the notation of A – considered erroneous.
