I assume your attribute value always starts with "Canto" and continues with a
roman number. Then you could use:

<xsl:template match="mets:div[@LABEL[matches(., '^Canto [IVXL]+$')]]"/>

This is of course not very precise, because it also matches "Canto VIVIX", but
I guess this is unlikely.

You should definitely read the chapter on regular expressions in a good XSLT
2.0 reference.
