From the Shakespeare's Insults calendar:
Thy bones are marrowless, thy
blood is cold.
Thou hast no speculation* in
those eyes,
Which thou dost glare with.
(Macbeth 3.4.94-96)
*speculation - intelligence, power of rational observation
Macbeth to the ghost of Banquo, whom he murdered
He's a rank weed...
And we must root him out.
(The Life of King Henry the Eighth 5.1.52-53)
Gardiner, of Cranmer, Archbishop of Canterbury
