OP Anybody heard of this word? It's not in Onelook.
The context (from Ellis Peters's "Saint Peter's Fair, page 163, the he and she are a young man and his mother):
He hugged her impulsively, and kissed her cheek, and she put him off impatiently, with what was more a slap than a caress. 'Get along with you, and don't come moguing me until you're cleared of the worse charge, and have paid your fine for the riot. Now come and eat your dinner!'
From the context it would seem to mean coaxing or something of that sort, but does anyone know more specifically?
