[edit] Second Movement: How many variations?

I'm confused. I have a pocket score edition of this piece published by the Wiener Philharmonischer Verlag; for the second movement it says there are six variations (theme: mm 3-20; var. I: mm 21-39; var. II: mm 40-59; var. III: mm 60-77; var. IV: mm 78-96; var. V: mm 97-109; var. VI: mm 110-118; coda: mm 119-127) whereas this page says there are five variations. Also, I feel that the explanation of the second movement is unnecessarily wordy. If I had time to edit it I would, unfortunately I do not have time at the moment. Maybe I will come back. The Fletch
