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

Troilus and Cressida

Fie , fie , my brother ,
Weigh you the worth and honor of a king
So great as our dread father’s in a scale
Of common ounces ? Will you with counters sum
The past-proportion of his infinite ,
And buckle in a waist most fathomless
With spans and inches so diminutive
As fears and reasons ? Fie , for godly shame !
