metaItem[@about="place"]
metaItem[@about="place"]/metaDescribes[@predicate=("institution", "street", "parish", "town", "city", "borough", "county", "state", "province", "country")]

Capture components of the place using metaDescribes with predicate having one of these values as specified:

Any of the above components may also be used together with a sibling metaDescribes predicate="qualifier" or metaDescribes predicate="near". The allowed values within predicate="qualifier" are:

none
probable
possible
presumed

The allowed values within predicate="near" are:

none
