sloping downward

The return journey is the worst, the bridge sloping downward toward the mainland.

With a quick glance her eyes travelled over the sheltered, drowsy garden, sloping downward, terrace below terrace.

As before noted, our rifle-pits extended along a sandy ridge, the ground open in front, sloping downward to the railroad.

The walk back along the ridge of the cliffs was easy, the ground sloping downward in our favour.

Sloping downward toward the mighty stream, lie pasture, grove and field, gaily mingled together.
