Rebuke (7)

Ross

'rebuke' is the definition.
(chastening is a kind of rebuking)

This is all the clue.

(Other definitions for chasten that I've seen before include "Subdue pride of with a stench" , "Censure severely" , "Have a restraining effect on (someone)" , "Subdue the pride of, discipline" , "Subdue, correct by punishing" .)

I've seen this clue in The Times, The Telegraph and the Evening Standard.
