Because there is only one <pb> element that is a grandchild of <div
type="introduction">, the other one is an immediate child. If you want to
find all descendant <pb> elements, write <xsl:for-each
select="descendant::pb">, or ".//pb" (which means the same thing unless
there are positional predicates). If you want to find children and
grandchildren, write "pb | */pb".
