The missing staccato dot in FE and GE1 must be a result of the engravers' oversights (the engraver of GE1 can be excused, since it is difficult to identify the mark in FC). The accent added in GE2 (→GE3) by analogy with the next bars is an arbitrary revision. category imprint: Differences between sources issues: Errors in FE , Errors in GE , GE revisions |

The fact of GE2 (→GE3) shortening the slurs results from a general assumption adopted by the revisers of GE2 according to which all similar motifs should be provided with slurs encompassing quavers only. The discussed bars, in which both manuscripts and the remaining editions contain clearly longer slurs, stand in flagrant contradiction with that conjecture. category imprint: Differences between sources issues: GE revisions |
