Longer slur in AI, GE & EEW

Shorter slur in FE (→EEC)

According to us, the slur ending in FE (→EEC) before the last note of the motif is inaccurate, most probably due to a wrong interpretation of the notation of [A]. The range of the short slurs encompassing particular motifs introduced in this autograph could have seemed obvious to Chopin, which probably resulted in hasty, not very careful notation. The arguments for leading the slur to the B crotchet are the slur of AI in this place and the slur of FE in a similar motif in bar 54.
