In Atut, it is unclear from which note the slur begins. When interpreted literally, it seems to be encompassing three notes, from the e1 semiquaver. However, according to us, the shape of the line suggests that Chopin started writing it earlier, yet the ink did not flow out immediately. From the musical point of view, it would be a slur beginning already from the c2 quaver that would be most natural; however, reluctant to excessively intervene in the graphic image of music, in the main text we suggest a slur from the note that directly precedes its visible ending. category imprint: Graphic ambiguousness; Differences between sources issues: Errors in FE , Inaccurate slurs in A , GE revisions |

According to us, the distinct dash visible in Atut on the right-hand side of the last chord is a fingering digit (1), referring to the d1-e1 second. Its omission in FE (→GE,EE) is probably a result of misunderstanding this mark (or a simple oversight). In the main text, we add a brace indicating the notes this digit applies to. category imprint: Differences between sources issues: Errors in FE |

The slur in bar 13, which ends the line of the text in Atut, is written indistinctly – one can see only its beginning. Consequently, the mark was omitted in FE (→EE,GE1→GE2), whereas the slur begins only just from bar 14. The revision introduced in GE3, a slur encompassing the entire first motif, like all subsequent ones, certainly corresponds to Chopin's intention, hence we include it in the main text (cf. prolonging the slurs in Atut in bars 14-15 and 17-18). category imprint: Differences between sources; Editorial revisions issues: EE revisions , Errors in FE , Inaccurate slurs in A , GE revisions |

The missing is most probably an oversight of the engraver of FE (→GE,EE). However, it is also likely that the engraver was not certain how to reproduce this mark – written on the stave, it could turn out illegible in print. category imprint: Differences between sources issues: Errors in FE |
