[ Also see Absence Adieu Banishment Death Goodbye Greeting Parting Welcome ]

Sweets to the sweet! Farewell.
      - William Shakespeare,
        Hamlet Prince of Denmark
         (Gertrude, Queen of Denmark at V, i)

Farewell and stand fast.
      - William Shakespeare,
        King Henry the Fourth, Part I
         (Poins at II, ii)

Farewell the plumed troop, and the big wars
  That make ambition virtue! O, farewell!
    Farewell the neighing steed and the shrill trump,
      The spirit-stirring drum, th' ear-piercing fife,
        The royal banner, and all quality,
          Pride, pomp, and circumstance of glorious war!
      - William Shakespeare,
        Othello the Moor of Venice
         (Othello at III, iii)

Farewell? a long farewell to all my greatness!
  This is the state of man: to-day he puts forth
    The tender leaves of hope; to-morrow blossoms,
      And bears his blushing honors thick upon him;
        The third day comes a frost, a killing frost,
          And when he thinks, good easy man, full surely
            His greatness is a-ripening, nips his root,
              And then he falls as I do.
      - William Shakespeare,
        The Life of King Henry VIII
         (Wolsay at III,ii)

And mind, with my heart in't; and now farewell
  Till half an hour hence.
      - William Shakespeare, The Tempest
         (Miranda at III, i)

Then westward ho!
  Grace and good disposition attend your ladyship.
      - William Shakespeare,
        Twelfth Night, or, What You Will
         (Viola at III, i)

So sweetly she bade me adieu,
  I thought that she bade me return.
      - William Shenstone
