न भ्रातुः किल देव्यां स व्यासः कामात्समासजत् ।
दासीरतस्तदासीद्यन्मात्रा तत्राप्यदेशि किम् ॥

अन्वयः AI सः व्यासः भ्रातुः देव्याम् कामात् न समासजत् किल । यत् तदा दासी-रतः आसीत्, तत्र अपि मात्रा किम् अदेशि?
Summary AI The speaker sarcastically accepts the official story that Vyasa did not sleep with his brother's wives out of personal desire. He then points out that Vyasa also slept with a maidservant and asks rhetorically if he was also commanded by his mother to do that, implying Vyasa was indeed driven by lust.
