  b. 75-76

No slur in A (→FC→GE, →FE→EE)

Slur from 7th quaver in FES, literal reading

Slur from 8th quaver, our variant suggestion

In the main text we include the contextual interpretation of the slur added in FES, probably by Chopin. In this case, the context is provided by the ending of the Nocturne in B Major, Op. 62 No. 1, in which in both preserved Stichvoralge autographs Chopin combined the last R.H. semiquaver in b. 88, f, with the d2 minim at the beginning of b. 89: .
