The word is used at least twice in "A Game of Hide and Seek" by Elizabeth Taylor (London: Virago, 2008). First published 1951.
Example 1: "His silent attention so enisled her that it was if he bandaged her heart as well as her hand." (p. 200)
Example 2: "The phlegmy fog thickened the darkness beyond the windows and enisled them there." (p. 231)
