Why did he choose the name Lendon for the new second rater? It was a new departure. True, the names of many cities and towns in Great Britain had during the preceding six years been drawn upon for naval nomenclature. All of them had been chosen by exultant Puritanism with malice aforethought because of the victories they || had won there.

With the name Loudon, however, the casa wis different. Cromwell here undoubtedly intended a compliment. The city had shown itself ostentatiously friendly to Cromwell and his cause, It had presented. the Protector with plate after Naveby, and fetod him after Worcester. It had by received him with almost royal state and banqueted him or his being pro. claimed Lend Protector. Other motives, more subtle, were at work in the shrewd Roundhead brain.
