Primate and lord mentioned in history (4)
I believe the answer is:
laud
I'm afraid I can't even guess how this answer relates to the clue.
Can you help me to learn more?
(Other definitions for laud that I've seen before include "'Praise, glorify (4)'" , "Praise - celebrate" , "Praiseworthy" , "Praise acclaim" , "homage" .)
