  b. 703-704

Separate slurs in A (contextual interpretation→FC) & GE3

Continuous slur in A (possible interpretation→FEEE) & GE1 (→GE2)

It is not entirely clear in A whether the slur in b. 704, which opens a new line, is to be considered a continuation of the preceding one, as it was understood in FE (→EE), or the beginning of a new one, as it was most probably reproduced by Fontana – in FC the slur at the end of b. 703 does not suggest a continuation. Therefore, the continuous slur of GE1 (→GE2) must be considered an inaccuracy, corrected in GE3.
