Defining a prefix to associate with the URI accomplished what I wanted.  

<xsl:key name="definitions" match="myns:glossentry" use="myns:term/@key"/>

<xsl:variable name="definition">
    <xsl:value-of select="key('definitions', $normalizedText,
$glossaryDocument)/myns:definition"/>
</xsl:variable>

I hadn't realized the key function had been extended to add the "top"
parameter in XSLT 2; It's a nice simplification to get the key evaluated in
the desired context. 

Thanks to you both for your replies.
