  b. 4-5

Separate slurs in A (→FEEE)

Continuous slur in FC (→GE)

In FC the line ends in b. 4, and the slurs, both at the end of b. 4 and at the beginning of b. 5, indicate that the slur should be continued. In A the slurs between the lines also suggest a continuous slur; however, in the case of A the line ends earlier, already in the middle of b. 4. This was most probably the reason for the copyist's confusion: he did not pay attention to the difference in the layout while writing the slurs.
