Bṛhad-bhāgavatāmṛta Part 2 Chapter 1 Text 35

vipro niṣkiñcanaḥ kaścit
purā prāgjyotiṣe pure
vasann ajñāta-śāstrārtho
bahu-draviṇa-kāmyayā

TRANSLATION
Long ago in the city of Prāgjyotiṣa there lived a poor brāhmaṇa. He was ignorant of the teachings of scripture, and he hankered after abundant wealth.
