Both this passage and a similar one 4 bars later are encompassed with two slurs. In spite of this, in both cases one can find a justification for divisions of those slurs (each time different); according to us, the most likely explanation for this state of affairs is an inaccurate notation resulting from, e.g. the layout with an octave sign encompassing also the 2nd beat of the bar, which favours divisions of slurs, or from the transition to a new line in [A] (in bars 430-431). Due to this reason, in the main text we suggest a slur encompassing the entire sequence of semiquavers in each of those places.
