  b. 267-268

f1 & f tied in A (→FC→GE) & FESf

f1 repeated, f tied in FE

f1 tied, f repeated in EE

In FE b. 267 closes the line of the text. There are no ties of the R.H. minims, f-f1, therein, whereas in b. 268 it is only the tie of f that was finished. These are patent mistakes. EE ignored that partial tie while adding a tie of f1, probably on the basis of comparison with an analogous place in b. 271-272, where FE has only the tie of f1. All necessary ties in the discussed bars were added in FESf.
