Michael's answer gives you source document context of each item,
which can be very useful.
But to answer your specific question in the event that context is not needed:

I have now normalized and isolated every phrase I wish to index into
a few thousand structures similar to:
<Text lang="en" data="Zlutice Hymnal 1558" title="Czech Republic
Stamp 664" ref="2010-664.htm"/>
and want to break the @data attribute string into into individual
words associated with its title and ref attributes. How do I use
"distinct-values(tokenize(@data))" to construct a sequence of <Word>
elements from the <Text> element similar to the following? That is,
I don't see how to get at the words returned from
distinct-values(tokenize(@data)) one at a time to do this.
<Word title="Czech Republic Stamp 664" ref="2010-664.htm">Zlutice</Word>
<Word title="Czech Republic Stamp 664" ref="2010-664.htm">Hymnal</Word>
<Word title="Czech Republic Stamp 664" ref="2010-664.htm">1558</Word>
Thankfully, it is straightforward to do something "for each" value in
a sequence:
<xsl:variable name="title" select="@title"/>
<xsl:variable name="ref" select="@ref"/>
<!--walk over each distinct value setting that value as the current node-->
<xsl:for-each select="distinct-values(........)">
<Word title="{$title}" ref="{$ref}"><xsl:value-of select="."/></Word>
</xsl:for-each>
I hope this helps.
