```
    Get another iterator to return the same nodes
    
    Specified by:
    
    getAnother in interface SequenceIterator
    
    Overrides:
    
    getAnother in class FilterIterator
    
    Returns:
    
    a SequenceIterator that iterates over the same items, positioned before the first item
    
    Throws:
    
    XPathException - if any error occurs
