unbeleaguered (not comparable)

  1. Not beleaguered.
    • 1896, Andrew Lang, A Monk of Fife:
      We had but one gate unbeleaguered, the Chapel Gate, leading to Choisy and the north-east. Now were we straitened for provender, notably for fresh meat, and men were driven, as in a city beleaguered, to eat the flesh of dead horses, and even of rats and dogs []
