In Oxford dictionary, I searched to know in how much way "need" can be used. It gives some sentences to express the different usage of "need". One of them was:
Lest you, even more than needs, embitter our parting.

I couldn't understand the meaning of this sentence. Now I want help.
 
For fear that you make our parting more bitter than necessary.
