  Overview  of  adv  hence 
 
  The  adv  hence  has  3  senses  (first  1  from  tagged  texts) 
 
  1.  (26)  therefore,  hence  thence,  thus  --  ((used  to  introduce  a  logical  conclusion)  from  that  fact  or  reason  or  as  a  result;  "therefore  X  must  be  true";  "the  eggs  were  fresh  and  hence  satisfactory";  "we  were  young  and  thence  optimistic";  "it  is  late  and  thus  we  must  go";  "the  witness  is  biased  and  so  cannot  be  trusted") 
  2.  hence  --  ((archaic)  from  this  place  "get  thee  hence!") 
  3.  hence  --  (from  this  time;  "a  year  hence  it  will  be  forgotten")
