Dido \Di"do\, n.; pl. {Didos}. A shrewd trick; an antic; a caper. {To cut a dido}, to play a trick; to cut a caper; -- perhaps so called from the trick of Dido, who having bought so much land as a hide would cover, is said to have cut it into thin strips long enough to inclose a spot for a citadel. | |
