it's only going to work if you do <xsl:apply-templates select="p"/> in
<text> context. 

If you just do <xsl:apply-templates/> you're applying templates to the whole
document, which will change the values of position() and last(). They'll
only give the values you want if you're just applying templates to this set
of <p>s
