2 "vertical" slurs in A1 & GE1

2 conventional slurs

Both the absence of a slur next to the grace note in b. 61 and reproducing the slur in b. 62 as a conventional mark, combining the grace note with the top (g1) and not bottom (c1) note of the quaver, must be a mistake and inaccuracy of FE (→EE). It is also GE2 that features conventional slurs in both places. In the main text we give the compliant notation of A1 and GE2, in which the slurs most probably indicate an arpeggio: .

"Vertical" slur in A1

No slur in FE (→EE) & GE1

Conventional slur in GE2
..

The missing slur next to the grace note is an oversight of the engraver of FE (→EE) and most probably also of the engraver of GE1. In the main text we give the slur of A1. The conventional little slur added in GE2 is an arbitrary revision.
