Doing \Do"ing\, n.; pl. {Doings}.
   Anything done; a deed; an action good or bad; hence, in the
   plural, conduct; behavior. See {Do}.

         To render an account of his doings.      -- Barrow.

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 As an independent verb, dost is
   obsolete or rare, except in poetry. ``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}.]
   1. To place; to put. [Obs.] --Tale of a Usurer (about 1330).

   2. To cause; to make; -- with an infinitive. [Obs.]

            My lord Abbot of Westminster did do shewe to me late
            certain evidences.                    --W. Caxton.

            I shall . . . your cloister do make.  --Piers
                                                  Plowman.

            A fatal plague which many did to die. --Spenser.

            grace of God bestowed on the churches of Macedonia.
                                                  --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.

   4. To perform, as an action; to execute; to transact to carry
      out in action; as, to do a good or a bad act; do our duty;
      to do what I can.

            Six days shalt thou labor and do all thy work. --Ex.
                                                  xx. 9.

            We did not do these things.           --Ld. Lytton.

      finish; to accomplish; -- a sense conveyed by the
