How to I break an XML node into 2 using XSLT 1.0

I have an XML node with a child element that I need to break up into two
Something like this

<node margin="5pt" color="red">with some text and <seperator/> where the element continues</node>


The result should be

<node margin="5pt" color="red">with some text and </node>
<node margin="5pt" color="red">where the element continues</node>

The following XSLT 1.0 stylesheet will split up the content and produce separate node elements with the content of the text() that are siblings to the seperator element (which is mis-spelled)

node

text()

seperator

<xsl:stylesheet xmlns:xsl="http://www.w3.org/1999/XSL/Transform" version="1.0">
<xsl:output indent="yes" />

<xsl:template match="@*|node()">
<xsl:copy>
<xsl:apply-templates select="@*|node()"/>
</xsl:copy>
</xsl:template>

<xsl:template match="seperator"/>

<xsl:template match="node/text()[preceding-sibling::seperator or following-sibling::seperator]">
<xsl:element name="name(..)">
<xsl:copy-of select="../@*|."/>
</xsl:element>
</xsl:template>

</xsl:stylesheet>
