this is the same as your input except all the children of narrative are 
wrapped in text, which doesn't need grouping at all?


just
xsl:template match="narrative">
<xsl:copy>
<xsl:copy-of seelct="@*
<text>
<xsl:copy-of select="*"/>
</text>
</xsl:copy>

but presumably this isn't what you want?

or perhaps you want para and tables to be in the same group which would 
just requirre changing your code

group-adjacent="name()">


to

group-adjacent="exists(self::table|self::para)">
if you want tables and paras in one group and everything else in the other

or


group-adjacent="replace(name(),'table','para')">
if you want tables and paras in one group and each distinct element type 
other than these two in their own groups
