Slur in CJ

Slurs in CK, literal reading

Slur in CB, contextual interpretation of slurs in CJ & CK

We interpret the slurs of CK as an attempt to combine the unnecessarily separated slurs. According to us, the beginnings of the slurs of CJ and CK are probably inaccurate, even if they are not that far from the notation of [A2]. We consider the slur of CB to be the accurate interpretation thereof and thus suggest it in the main text. The absence of the slurs in A1 and EL – see b. 5-7.
