Why day is day, night night, and time is time,
Were nothing but to waste night, day and time.
Therefore, since brevity is the soul of wit,
And tediousness the limbs and outward flourishes,

Mad call I it; for, to define true madness,
What is’t but to be nothing else but mad?

• chatty
• circuitous
• circumlocutory
• desultory
• diffuse
• digressive
• discursive
• evasive
• gabby
• garrulous
• long-winded
• loquacious
• maundering
• meandering
• palaverous
• prolix
• rambling
• talkative
• turgid
• vague
• verbose
• waffling
• windy
• wordy

and of course, my personal favorite word for vexing prattlers wont to sacrifice wit’s soul on the altar of florid flourish:
