How to get node text from child context using ruby, xpath, rexml

I'm having an issue getting REXML::XPath.first to render the correct node text from a child context.

See the test script and xml below.

test.rb

require 'rexml/document'
require 'rexml/xpath'

file = File.new('test.xml')
doc = REXML::Document.new(file)

employers = REXML::XPath.match(doc, '//EmployerOrg')
employers.each do |employer|
  # this looks fine, position_history is being set for each employer
  position_history = REXML::XPath.first(employer, 'PositionHistory')

  # always returns the title from the first employer, in spite of the position_history context
  p title = REXML::XPath.first(position_history, '//Title').text
end

Output:

"Director of Web Applications Development"
"Director of Web Applications Development"
"Director of Web Applications Development"

Probably because your XPath '//Title' is saying to start at the top of the document, pretty much ignoring the context-node position_history. Try replacing that with './Title' or just 'Title'.
