deliratio

deliratio
dēlīrātĭo, ōnis, f. [id.], originally, a going out of the furrow, in ploughing; hence, trop., giddiness, silliness, folly, dotage, madness (very rare):

quod vocant lirare, operiente semina, unde primum appellata deliratio est,

Plin. 18, 20, 49, § 180:

ista senilis stultitia, quae deliratio appellari solet,

Cic. de Sen. 11, 36:

o delirationem incredibilem! non enim omnis error stultitia est dicenda,

id. Div. 2, 43:

aliena,

Plin. Ep. 6, 15, 4.
