Slur in first half of bar 18 in As |

Slur over entire phrase in remaining sources |
Instead of a slur over the entire phrase in b. 13-19, As includes only a half-bar slur in b. 18. The appearance of a slur in this exact place can be related to the draft, incomplete nature of the manuscript; however, it is likely that Chopin's first impulse was to write down this group of quavers as a quintuplet, yet he changed the concept still before writing a digit '5' under the slur (irregular groups were generally marked by Chopin with a slur and a digit).
