so your root element is called document.
so the xpath expression /text/@text.role will always return an empty
node set, which counts as false to xsl:if.

well that is always empty, judging by your example, packet
only has para and illust children, no text children.

Of course I don't have any idea what the desired output should be but
I'd guess you want to have 
<xsl:template match=packet">
....
  and then have queries like select="para" select="illust/image" etc.
you need to use relative queries from the current node, not absolute
paths starting with / if yoxrmu intend to get different values for
different instances of the template. The current node will be whichever
node you specify in the match attribute to xsl:template.
