 beat up
the...The dawn is beat up by the horses of Phoebus, who rides the sun across the sky every day in his chariot, called by Ovid the burning axle-tree. There is another echo from Ovid's Metamorphoses, the story of Niobe: "With even surface, far extending round, / Beaten and level'd, while it daily feels / The trampling horse, and chariot's grinding wheels." reference topics
