  Farewell \Fare`well"\, interj. [Fare (thou, you) + well.]

     departing, but by custom now applied both to those who depart

     as, fare you well; and is sometimes used as an expression of
     separation only; as, farewell the year; farewell, ye sweet
     groves; that is, I bid you farewell.
     [1913 Webster]
  
           So farewell hope, and with hope, farewell fear.
