1. \Do.\, n.
   An abbreviation of {Ditto}.
   

2. \Do\ (d[=o]), n. (Mus.)
   A syllable attached to the first tone of the major diatonic
   scale for the purpose of solmization, or solfeggio. It is the
   first of the seven syllables used by the Italians as manes of
   musical tones, and replaced, for the sake of euphony, the
   syllable Ut, applied to the note C. In England and America
   the same syllables are used by mane as a scale pattern, while
   the tones in respect to absolute pitch are named from the
   first seven letters of the alphabet.
   

3. \Do\, v. t. or auxiliary. [imp. {Din}; p. p. {Done}; p. pr. &
   vb. n. {Doing}. This verb, when transitive, is formed in the
   indicative, present tense, thus: I do, thou doest (?) or dost
   ?, he does (?), doeth (?), or doth (?); when auxiliary, the
   second person is, thou dost. As an independent verb, dost is
   obsolete or rare, except in poetry. ``What dost thou in this
   world?'' --Milton. The form doeth is a verb unlimited, doth,
   formerly so used, now being the auxiliary form. The second
   pers, sing., imperfect tense, is didst (?), formerly didest
   (?).] [AS. d?n; akin to D. doen, OS. duan, OHG. tuon, G.
   thun, Lith. deti, OSlav. d?ti, OIr. d['e]nim I do, Gr. ? to
   put, Skr. dh[=a], and to E. suffix -dom, and prob. to L.
   facere to do, E. fact, and perh. to L. -dere in some
   compounfds, as addere to add, credere to trust. ??? Cf.
   {Deed}, {Deem}, {Doom}, {Fact}, {Creed}, {Theme}.]

                                                  --2 Cor. viii.
                                                  1.
   Note: We have lost the idiom shown by the citations (do used
         like the French faire or laisser), in which the verb in
         the infinitive apparently, but not really, has a
         passive signification, i. e., cause . . . to be made.
   3. To bring about; to produce, as an effect or result; to

                                                  xx. 9.

   Note:
       (a) Do and did are much employed as auxiliaries, the verb
           to which they are joined being an infinitive. As an
           auxiliary the verb do has no participle. ``I do set
           my bow in the cloud.'' --Gen. ix. 13. [Now archaic or
           rare except for emphatic assertion.]
                 Rarely . . . did the wrongs of individuals to
                 the knowledge of the public.     -- Macaulay.
       (b) They are often used in emphatic construction. ``You
           don't say so, Mr. Jobson. -- but I do say so.'' --Sir
           W. Scott. ``I did love him, but scorn him now.''
           --Latham.
       (c) In negative and interrogative constructions, do and
           did are in common use. I do not wish to see them;
           what do you think? Did C[ae]sar cross the Tiber? He
           did not. ``Do you love me?'' --Shak.
       (d) Do, as an auxiliary, is supposed to have been first
           used before imperatives. It expresses entreaty or
           earnest request; as, do help me. In the imperative
           mood, but not in the indicative, it may be used with
           the verb to be; as, do be quiet. Do, did, and done
           often stand as a general substitute or representative
           verb, and thus save the repetition of the principal
           verb. ``To live and die is all we have to do.''
           --Denham. In the case of do and did as auxiliaries,
           the sense may be completed by the infinitive (without
           to) of the verb represented. ``When beauty lived and
           died as flowers do now.'' --Shak. ``I . . . chose my
           wife as she did her wedding gown.'' --Goldsmith.
                 My brightest hopes giving dark fears a being.
                 As the light does the shadow.    -- Longfellow.
           In unemphatic affirmative sentences do is, for the
           most part, archaic or poetical; as, ``This just
           reproach their virtue does excite.'' --Dryden.
   {To do one's best}, {To do one's diligence} (and the like),
      to exert one's self; to put forth one's best or most or
      most diligent efforts. ``We will . . . do our best to gain
      their assent.'' --Jowett (Thucyd.).
   {To do one's business}, to ruin one. [Colloq.] --Wycherley.
   {To do one shame}, to cause one shame. [Obs.]
   {To do over}.
       (a) To make over; to perform a second time.
       (b) To cover; to spread; to smear. ``Boats . . . sewed
           together and done over with a kind of slimy stuff
           like rosin.'' --De Foe.
   {To do to death}, to put to death. (See 7.) [Obs.]
   {To do up}.
       (a) To put up; to raise. [Obs.] --Chaucer.
       (b) To pack together and envelop; to pack up.
       (c) To accomplish thoroughly. [Colloq.]
       (d) To starch and iron. ``A rich gown of velvet, and a
           ruff done up with the famous yellow starch.''
           --Hawthorne.
   {To do way}, to put away; to lay aside. [Obs.] --Chaucer.
   {To do with}, to dispose of; to make use of; to employ; --
      usually preceded by what. ``Men are many times brought to
      that extremity, that were it not for God they would not
      know what to do with themselves.'' --Tillotson.
   {To have to do with}, to have concern, business or
      intercourse with; to deal with. When preceded by what, the
      notion is usually implied that the affair does not concern
      the person denoted by the subject of have. ``Philology has
      to do with language in its fullest sense.'' --Earle.
      ``What have I to do with you, ye sons of Zeruiah? --2 Sam.
      xvi. 10.

   1. To act or behave in any manner; to conduct one's self.
