Slurs from E to g in GE1 (contextual interpretation) & FE (→EE)

Slurs from  F1 to a in GE2

Slurs from E to a, our alternative suggestion

Like in b. 61-64, in the main text we give the unequivocal slurs of FE (→EE). The slurs of GE1, starting earlier, may convey the inaccurate notation of [A], which most probably indicates slurs of the same range. The version of GE2 must be arbitrary. Our alternative suggestion is based on the assumption that the engravers could have routinely interpreted the endings of the slurs.
