A master of poetic form, he wrote the collections of verses "Kanikuła" (Dog Days, 1647) and "Lutnia" (Lute, 1661). He was concerned less with the "worldly happiness" but rather, with its inherent self-contradictions, such as paradoxes of love, full both of frivolity and metaphysical fear. Nonetheless some of his other works had political subtones, like "Pospolite ruszenie" or "Pieśń w obozie pod Żwańcem" (Song in the camp near Żwaniec), which criticized szlachta unwillingness to react to potential dangers (from Tatars or Cossacks). Unlike his cousin, Zbigniew Morsztyn, few of his works can be counted as religious poetry, the notable exception being the "Pokuta w kwartanie".
