Neville's account of his commission. Years ago he was sent to do this work and was told, 'Go! And down with the blue-bloods!' - the blue-bloods being the traditional, fixed and accepted states, as one speaks of blue-blooded horses and blue-blooded people. He was sent to tear down all the traditional misunderstandings of the greatest story ever told and to tell instead the story of Christ Jesus in man; and sent to say that whatever a man's race or background, he is a child of God, and that whoever tells him otherwise has it completely wrong.
