because there is no right order for attributes.
Attributes are explictly unordered beasts and parsers can return them in
any order.

An input of

<years title="year" century="20th" month="April" Day="Thursday"/>

and an input of

<years  month="April" century="20th" title="year" Day="Thursday"/>

are quite likely to produce the same source tree, on many parsers.

If you want to extract the attributes in some order do
<xsl:value-of select="year"/>
<xsl:value-of select="century"/>
