But to me the choice of "le" implies
that the reference is plural and selected from a larger set

it wouldn't have occurred to me though that is certainly within
the possibilities; i could have removed it with "lepa"...

"...the spring of the Army-McCarthy hearings... John [Berryman], as an addicted reader of The New York Times, once began a class by holding up the front page so the class might see the latest revelation in the ongoing drama. 'These fools will rule for a while and be replaced by other fools and crooks. This,' and he opened a volume of Keats to the 'Ode to a Nightingale', 'will be with us for as long as our language endures.'" --Philip Levine, in The Bread of Time (1994)
