A state of delirium or wild excitement; uncontrolled mental disturbance.
From French 'délire', which comes directly from Latin 'delirare' (to rave); used primarily in medical and literary French but sometimes borrowed into English.
French psychiatrists adopted this term directly from Latin and it became standard in European medicine, showing how the Roman diagnosis of 'going off the furrow' became the medical language across continents.
