This is a very FAQ.

<Envelope xmlns="EN"

that's an element with local name envelope and namespace name EN
(by the way having relative URI as namespace names is explictly
deprecated by order of the W3C hierarchy, all new W3C specs have to say
the behaviour of such documents is undefined)


The following XSLT does not work
   <xsl:template match="Envelope" >

that matches an element with local name Envelope in the null namespace,
which isn't the same thing.

Stick xmlns:en="EN" in the xsl:stylesheet element then within the
stylesheet you can refer to this namespace using the en: prefix:


   <xsl:template match="en:Envelope" >
... <xsl:apply-templates select="en:Body" />
