slide back

Were they not the cops they are, they might just let the city slide back into bloody mayhem.

One minute a country is on the road to recovery and the next minute it looks like it could slide back into war.

It began to slide back, with no time left it for a third try.

The great locomotive panted, and Grant, staring out through the glasses, saw a blinking light slide back to them.

We toiled up a few feet only to slide back and so it went on until we were weary of life.

I would slide back my window and hear their laughter as they passed, above the throb of the engines and the wash of the sea.

When you wish to pass from one room to the next you slide back one of the shoji, and shut it after you.
