In FE a mistake was committed by not continuing the slur in a new line, which was reproduced in EEC as a slur over 4 quavers. In the main text we correct this oversight by leading the slur to c1-e1, as it was interpreted in EEW. The absence of the slur in GE is probably a mistake, although it cannot be excluded that the proof copy of FE1 that served as the basis for GE1 did not yet include this slur – see the note on the slur in bar 69.
