The slur in FE (→GE1→GE2) was written carelessly – the beginning of the slur is placed at the pitch of the top voice, but it falls over the 2nd quaver in the bar. We assume the most straightforward interpretation, from the b1 quaver, to be the text of those editions. The version was revised both in EE and GE3; in the latter, in accordance with Atut. category imprint: Graphic ambiguousness; Differences between sources issues: EE revisions , Inaccuracies in FE , GE revisions |

The notation of Atut may be misleading – there is a delicate trace of ink caused by the quill's transfer between the staccato dots, which the engraver of FE considered a slur. The revision in GE3 was most probably performed on the basis of analogy with the following bars. category imprint: Graphic ambiguousness; Differences between sources issues: Errors in FE , GE revisions , Inaccuracies in A |

The slur of Atut, originally encompassing only 4 quavers (like in the following bars), was probably prolonged. According to us, it is, however, uncertain whether the short, zig-zag line was added on purpose – a trace after an unintended touch of the quill could have looked like that. It is also possible that Chopin wanted to prolong this slur, yet he hesitated at the time of writing it and eventually renounced longer slurs – none of the following slurs over similar motifs was prolonged. We are convinced that all motifs in bars 39-44 should be performed in a similar manner; therefore, in the main text, we suggest a non-prolonged slur. Such a solution was adopted also in GE3, probably on the basis of comparison with the following bars. category imprint: Graphic ambiguousness; Differences between sources; Editorial revisions issues: Inaccurate slurs in A , GE revisions |
