Notes: 

Cary 586 Liszt's corrections to the first edition (1847) of Elegie du Prince Louis de Prusse, which was composed in 1843.
Cary 585 Liszt's corrections to a new edition, probably by Schlesinger (after 1844), of his arrangement for piano of "Mignon's Lied" (Searle 271, no. 1; Raabe 592a). Since no manuscripts survive for these piano solo versions, this is a unique sheet.
