In A the slurs over the motifs of the bottom voice encompass the quavers only or reach the minim in the next bar. However, the differences are almost certainly of an accidental nature, hence in the main text we unify them, assuming 6-note slurs to be more frequent in A (7 longer, 2 shorter and 3 questionable). Accidental inaccuracies are also present in the remaining sources, except for GE, in which all slurs encompass 5 notes. The majority of the doubts concerning the range of the slurs is due to the ending lines: a slur suggesting continuation is not finished in a new line (b. 418-419 in A and FC, 432-433 in A, 412-413, 420-421 and 428-429 in FE and b. 422-423 in EE). In such situations we give shorter slurs in our transcriptions, just like in b. 426-427 in A and 412-413 in 428-429 in FC, which may be thought to be dubious. EE omitted the slur in b. 420-421. Neither FC nor FE, EE and GE reproduced the notation of the Stichvorlage correctly; however, the total number of inaccuracies in this section is smaller than the first time (b. 310-333). category imprint: Graphic ambiguousness; Differences between sources; Editorial revisions issues: Inaccuracies in FE , Errors in EE , Inaccurate slurs in A , GE revisions , EE inaccuracies , Inaccuracies in FC , Uncertain slur continuation |

The missing slur over the written-out arpeggio is most probably an oversight of the copyist. The slur was added in GE2 (→GE3), probably on the basis of a comparison with analogous b. 332-333. category imprint: Differences between sources issues: GE revisions , Errors of FC |

The slur in FC resembles the slur of A, yet it is slightly longer, which misled the engraver of GE1. The subsequent GE omitted that slur, which, from the point of view of the reviser of GE2, was a reasonable decision: among 16 bars featuring b-e1 on the 2nd crotchet and g category imprint: Graphic ambiguousness; Differences between sources issues: Inaccuracies in GE , GE revisions , Inaccuracies in FC |

Instead of a continuous slur for the bass motif, in EE there are two slurs converging on the dotted e minim. It is an inaccuracy, with no actual implications on the performance, which probably results from the fact that in FE b. 444 opens a new line of the text, and the slur in that bar, although it begins before the note, does not suggest continuation with its shape. category imprint: Differences between sources issues: EE inaccuracies |

In the main text we add a slur over the 2nd and 3rd crotchets after the authentic slurs in analogous b. 438 and 453. category imprint: Editorial revisions |
