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

King Lear


Contending with the fretful elements ;
Bids the wind blow the earth into the sea
Or swell the curlèd waters ’bove the main ,
That things might change or cease ; tears his white
hair ,
Which the impetuous blasts with eyeless rage
Catch in their fury and make nothing of ;
Strives in his little world of man to outscorn
The to-and-fro conflicting wind and rain .
This night , wherein the cub-drawn bear would
couch ,
The lion and the belly-pinchèd wolf
Keep their fur dry , unbonneted he runs
And bids what will take all .

Othello

Let him do his spite .
My services which I have done the signiory
Shall out-tongue his complaints . ’Tis yet to know
( Which , when I know that boasting is an honor ,
I shall promulgate ) I fetch my life and being
From men of royal siege , and my demerits
May speak unbonneted to as proud a fortune
As this that I have reached . For know , Iago ,
But that I love the gentle Desdemona ,
I would not my unhousèd free condition
Put into circumscription and confine
For the sea’s worth . But look , what lights come
yond ?
