He was a member of the Jesuit order since 1764, and after its suppression—a secretary of prince Adam Kazimierz Czartoryski and teacher of his children.
He was one of the first collectors of Belarusian folklore. His poem in Belarusian "Krosenki" ("Кросенкі") was sung by Belarusian farmers as a folk song.
