Firstly the XML you pasted was incomplete.. so have created the complete XML.


<Response xmlns="http://iWantToIgnoreThis">
       <H1>
          <H2>
             <e>
                <n1>BOB</n1>
                <n2>Boston</n2>
                <n4>xyz34</n4>
             </e>
             <e>
                <n1>JOHN</n1>
                <n2>Miami</n2>
                <n4>abadafeadsflasdf</n4>
             </e>
          </H2>
       </H1>
</Response>


Now using this XML, you can verify that BOB is from Boston & JOHN is from Miami by placing 2 xpath assertions (ignoring namespaces).
(((//*:H2/*:e[1]/*:n1)="BOB") and ((//*:H2/*:e[1]/*:n2)="Boston"))

(((//*:H2/*:e[2]/*:n1)="JOHN") and ((//*:H2/*:e[2]/*:n2)="Miami"))

I hope this would help.
