RE: How to get the sibling node just before the contex

If the context node is C, then it has no preceding sibling TEXT1: the TEXT1
elements are "nephews" rather than siblings.

But I suppose this isn't really your input, as it's missing closing tags,
and I'm guessing that the answer to the question you intended to ask might
be preceding-sibling::TEXT1[1].
