  b. 13-14

No slurs in A1, CK & EL

Slur in bar 14 in CJ

Slur from bar 13 in CB

In the main text we give a slur in the 2nd half of b. 14, written in CJ. The absence of this slur in CK and EL probably results from Kolberg's oversight. It is likely that upon seeing the text of CK devoid of slurs, Balakirev decided to repeat in CB the slur from analogous b. 5-6.
