========= Stylesheet ===============
<xsl:stylesheet version="1.0"
    xmlns:xsl="http://www.w3.org/1999/XSL/Transform";>
<xsl:output method='text'/>

<xsl:template match="/">
 <xsl:apply-templates/>
</xsl:template>

<xsl:template match='*'>
 <xsl:value-of select='name()'/>&#32;<xsl:apply-templates select='*'/>
</xsl:template>
</xsl:stylesheet>

============= Result =================
db coffee tea milk sugar salt pepper
