The noise was like an English fox-hunt only better because every now and then with the music of the hounds was mixed the roar of the other lion and sometimes the far deeper and more awful roar of Aslan himself.
should the clause have been ”because every now and then the roar of the other lion and sometimes the far deeper and more awful roar of Aslan himself was mixed with the music of the hounds.”?
