  b. 63-64

Separate slurs in A

Continuous slur in FC (→GE) & FE (→EE)

The continuous slur possibly results from conviction by both Fontana in FC (→GE) and the engraver of FE (→EE) that the cause of slurs in A being separated is just another pause in the ink feed to the tip of the quill, as in b. 61-62 (as well as 66). In the editors' opinion the shape of the slurs rather indicates that they are intentionally separate.
