William Secker says - (Like Ham)

"Christian, if you dwell in the open tent of licentiousness, the wicked will not walk backward, like modest Shem and Jaheth, to cover your shame; but will walk forward, like cursed Ham, to publish it."
The Nonsuch Professor p.12


And Noah began to be an husbandman, and he planted a vineyard: And he drank of the wine, and was drunken; and he was uncovered within his tent. And Ham, the father of Canaan, saw the nakedness of his father, and told his two brethren without. And Shem and Japheth took a garment, and laid it upon both their shoulders, and went backward, and covered the nakedness of their father; and their faces were backward, and they saw not their father's nakedness. Genesis 9:20-23
