Here are all of the speeches where disinsanity shows up across the corpus:

The Two Noble Kinsmen

Fie , fie , what tediosity and disinsanity
is here among you ! Have my rudiments been labored
so long with you , milked unto you , and , by a
figure , even the very plum broth and marrow of
my understanding laid upon you , and do you still
cry Where ? and How ? and Wherefore ? You
most coarse-frieze capacities , you jean judgments ,
have I said Thus let be and There let be
and Then let be and no man understand me ? Proh
deum , medius fidius , you are all dunces ! Forwhy ,
here stand I ; here the Duke comes ; there are you ,
close in the thicket ; the Duke appears ; I meet him
and unto him I utter learnèd things and many figures ;
he hears , and nods , and hums , and then cries
Rare ! and I go forward . At length I fling my cap
up — mark there ! Then do you as once did Meleager
and the boar — break comely out before him ;
like true lovers , cast yourselves in a body decently ,
and sweetly , by a figure , trace and turn , boys .
