It is unclear whether Chopin wanted to combine the last crotchet in bar 212 with the first one in bar 213 with a slur. In all sources, bar 212 ends a line of the text, which is conducive to inaccuracies – it could explain both the absence of the slur in A and no ending of the slur added in bar 212 in GE1 (→FE→EE). In GE2 the unfinished slur was regarded as a mistake and it was omitted. However, taking into account the fact that the slur of GE1, in spite of its imprecision, could have been added by Chopin, in the main text we include it in a form compliant with the authentic slur in analogous bars 204-205 (we add brackets due to the uncertainty of the source issue).
