His earliest poem is the Livre See also:des quatre dames, written after the See also:battle of See also:Agincourt. This was followed by the Debat du See also:reveille-satin, La Belle See also:Dame sans merci, and others. None of these poems show any very patriotic feeling, though Chartier's See also:prose is See also:evidence that he was not indifferent to the misfortunes of his See also:country.

The interlocutors in this See also:dialogue are See also:France herself and the three orders of the See also:state. Chartier See also:lays See also:bare the abuses of the feudal See also:army and the sufferings of the peasants. He rendered an immense service to his country by maintaining that the cause of France, though desperate to all See also:appearance, was not yet lost if the contending factions could See also:lay aside their See also:differences in the See also:face of the See also:common enemy. In 1424 Chartier was sent on an See also:embassy to See also:Germany, and three years later he accompanied to See also:Scotland the See also:mission sent to negotiate the See also:marriage of See also:Margaret of Scotland, then not four years old, with the dauphin, afterwards See also:- LOUIS
