Ah. I see what you're saying. I had to go back and look at the
original score to realize that the only time there's beaming is when
there's a slur -- with one spot where the author / typesetter forgot a
slur -- I think: "gem" in measure 13 looks like it wants a slur, and
that's an alteration I'll make.
