    Дела его вовсе под гору пошли. Охотиться стало не на что, последние денежки перевелись, последние люди разбежались. (И. Тургенев, Записки охотника) — Everything went utterly to ruin. He had no money left for sport; the last of his meagre fortune was spent; the last of his few servants ran away.

    И как свалился [Сапегин], так и покатилось всё под гору: вымер от поветрия породистый скот, рухнули оранжереи с приколотыми к стенам шпалерными абрикосами, сквозь осыпь штукатурки в углу гостиной стало гнилое дерево проступать. (Л. Леонов, Русский лес) — When he died everything started rolling downhill. Infectious disease carried off his pedigree stock, the greenhouse with his trellised apricots fastened to the walls collapsed, and the rotting timber began to show through the crumbling plaster in a corner of the drawing-room.

    С этого дня жизнь Корчагина шла под уклон. О работе не могло быть и речи. Всё чаще он проводил дни в кровати. (Н. Островский, Как закалялась сталь) — From that day Pavel felt that his life was on the decline. Work was now out of the question. More and more often he was confined to his bed.
