Eustache Deschamps (1346(?)-1406) was the leading French poet of his day. He was a Champenois by birth but spent most of his life in the service of Charles V and Charles VI under whom he held a number of important posts. He was a prolific and versatile poet, most often rather prosaic but sometimes eloquent with a strongly didactic and moralizing tendency.
