mawkin

Forbye, I would rather walk ae mile on the hill wi ye than twae, for ye gang up a brae-face like a mawkin!

I pray, let them go; there be more maids than Mawkin, more men than Hodge, and more fools than Firk.

Perhaps you mean the mawkin that was put up to scare birds from the peas in the garden, for it has more in its head than Tom.
