Салтыков-Щедрин, Добродетели и пороки) — Maybe it sounded simple enough, but then there are times when simplicity is worse than robbery. Just go and touch something 'in all simplicity'!

(subj: human (of a mortally ill or old and feeble person) to be about to dieX дышит на ладан = X has one foot in the graveX is on his last legs X is breathing his last....Почему-то в нём (Мите)... основалось убеждение, что этот старый развратитель, дышащий теперь на ладан, может быть, вовсе не будет в настоящую минуту противиться, если Грушенька устроит как-нибудь свою жизнь честно и выйдет за «благонадёжного человека» замуж (Достоевский 1)....For some reason the conviction had settled in him (Mitya)...that this old profligate, now with one foot in the grave, might not be at all averse at the moment to Grushenka somehow arranging her life honorably and marrying ua trustworthy man" (1a).«Дышит на ладан, — возразил полковник. - Оставь его, Филюков. Можете оба идти» (Войнович 2). "He's breathing his last," retorted the colonel. "Leave him alone, Filiukov. You're both dismissed" (2a).2.

Заинтересовался Георгий Блок, двоюродный брат поэта, работавший в дышавшем на ладан частном издательстве (Мандельштам 2). The fair copy (of Noise of Time) went the rounds of various publishers who all rejected it, devoid as it was of plot, story, class consciousness, or any kind of social significance. The only person to show interest was Georgi Blok, the cousin of the poet, who worked for a private publishing firm already on its last legs (2a).
