 The unpublished 88-page manuscript was discovered by Juozas Gabrys at the Polish Library in Paris in 1909 and was first published in 1931.The poems reflect Nezabitauskis' nostalgia for the homeland and grief for its lost independence, disappointment in world order (including some complaints to God) and a rebellious attitude calling for the liberation of Poland–Lithuania.Though undated and unsigned, researchers believe that around 1835–1836 he translated and published two small booklets with excerpts from "Paroles d'un croyant" (Words of a Believer) by Hugues Felicité Robert de Lamennais and "Modlitwa pielgrzyma" (Prayers of Pilgrimage) and "Litania pielgrzymska" (Litany of Pilgrimage) by Adam Mickiewicz.
