The slur of FE (→EE,GE1→GE2) must be inaccurate, perhaps as a result of an erroneous interpretation of [A] – Chopin, while writing a slur over the accents of the top voice, obvious to him, could have not noticed that the 1st quaver of the bar, placed much lower, turned up under the slur. In GE3, the slur was omitted, perhaps taking into account its inadequacy to the natural phrasing resulting from the texture. category imprint: Differences between sources; Editorial revisions issues: GE revisions |

The slurs of FE (→GE1→GE2) at the transition between bars 321 and 322 are inaccurate and unclear. The slur over the 3rd beat of bar 321 runs from the b1 crotchet to the last semiquaver of that bar, whereas the beginning of the slur in bar 322, opening a new line of text, suggests continuation from the previous bar. According to us, both slurs are inaccurate; in the main text, we clarify them, taking advantage of the similarity between bars 321 and 319-320 – we assign the slur in bar 321 to the bottom voice and start the slur in bar 322 from the beginning of that bar. This solution was adopted already in EE. In turn, GE3 considered only the slur in bar 321 to be inaccurate; it was changed in such a way, so that the beginning of the slur in bar 322 was meaningful. This version, offering quite an advantageous phrasing (cf. the slur in the L.H. in bars 321-322), may be considered an alternative interpretation of FE. category imprint: Graphic ambiguousness; Differences between sources issues: Inaccuracies in FE , GE revisions |

The slur in EE was most probably added by analogy with the authentic slurs in bars 45 and 47. category imprint: Differences between sources issues: EE revisions |
