How to retrieve value(which is copied into RTF as a v

I have a RTF with following declaration
<xsl:variable name="professionLevel"> 
		<xsl:for-each select="//profession">
			<xsl:variable name="nameval" select="@name"/>
			<xsl:variable name="parentval" select="@parent"/>
			<xsl:for-each
select="exslt:node-set($leverreference)/*">
				<xsl:variable name="referid" select="@levelref"/>
				<xsl:if test="$referid=$parentval">
					<xsl:copy>
						<xsl:copy-of select="$nameval"/>
					</xsl:copy>
				</xsl:if>
			</xsl:for-each>
		</xsl:for-each>
	</xsl:variable>

Later I want to retrieve $nameval from professionLevel
RTF.
I tried with
<xsl:for-each
select="exslt:node-set($professionLevel)/*">
		<xsl:value-of select="."/>
	</xsl:for-each> 
but it did not work. 
Any suggestion?

regards,
Ranjan
