   • 1900, John Gibson Lockhart, Memoirs of Sir Walter Scott: Volume 2, page 279:

     It is your fault, and I believe arises either from an ill-judged idea of smoothing matters to me — as if I were not behind the curtain — or a general reluctance to allow that any danger is near, until it is almost unparryable.

   • 2003, Bill Pottle, DreamQuest, page 117:

     It sliced through shields and swords vainly raised in an attempt to parry an unparryable blow as if it were light, yet when it struck, it was hard as forged iron.
