Two things of note.
1) you are parsing CONTENT when the documentation says that xpath processing
only works on DOCUMENT.
2) the reason for your error. The XML you provided does not specify a
default namespace. Also per documentation the default namespace in the XML
document must be assigned to a non-empty alias in the namespace array and
that alias needs to be used in the xpath expression.
section 9.14.3 in the 9.3 docs
