Do \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 As an independent verb, dost is obsolete or rare, except in poetry. [bd]What dost thou in this world?[b8] --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[82]nim I do, Gr.
