  b. 35-37

Nonuniform slurring in A (→FC)

No slurs in FE (→EE)

Uniform slurring in GE

The omission of three slurs in these bars is most probably a mistake of FE, while the change of the range of the slurs in b. 36-37 is probably a revision unifying them with the authentic slur in b. 35-36. However, it does not result from the notation of the manuscripts, in spite of their minor inaccuracies.
