1. посл.пусть мёртвые хоронят своих мертвецов; ≈ кто старое помянет, тому глаз вон [этим. библ. Matthew VIII, 22]2. v phr‘My dear,’ Martini said at last, ‘if there were any way on earth to undo a thing that is once done, it would be worth while to brood over our old mistakes; but as it is, let the dead bury their dead’. (E. L. Voynich, ‘The Gadfly’, part II, ch. IV) — - Дорогая Джемма, - заговорил наконец Мартини, - если бы на земле существовали способы менять то, что сделано, тогда стоило бы задумываться над старыми ошибками, но раз нельзя их исправить - пусть мертвые хоронят своих мертвецов.
