Shorter slurs in A

Longer slurs in FE (→GE,EE)

The slurs of A clearly reach only the last quaver in the motifs in b. 182-183 (it is only the first one that can be questionable, at the end of the line, but it does not go beyond the bar line either). Therefore, it is difficult to assume that the longer slurs of FE (→GE,EE) are an inaccuracy of the engraver, particularly since they are musically justified – they encompass entire motifs, as the two Chopinesque slurs in b. 180-182. Consequently, assuming Chopinesque proofreading, we give them in the main text.
