A includes separate slurs in bars 411 and 412, probably due to the crossed out fragments in bar 411. The fact that Chopin did not intend to divide the slur in this place is supported by the slurs in all three repetitions of this fragment (bars 419-421, 451-453 and 459-461). The ending of the slur in bar 412 is also inaccurate, since it suggests leading the slur to bar 413, yet it does not go beyond the bar line. A comparison of analogous bars enables us to interpret this detail correctly. The versions of GE1 and FE (→EE) follow from an inaccurate reproduction of the base texts. In GE2, the final fragment separated with a slur, corresponding to the figures in the previous bars, is completely arbitrary.
