Excerpt from The Century Dictionary of the English Language, Vol. 10: An Encyclopedic Lexicon
They [old men] have a plentiful lack of wit, together with most weak hams. Shak., Hamlet, ii. 2.
Hark ye, pupil; Go as I taught you, hang more upon your hams, And put your knees out bent. Fletcher (and another), Queen of Corinth, ii. 4.
At the caia's those who attended the consul kneeled on the so ha, resting behind on their hams, which is a very humb e posture.
