How about using the HTML pre element
   <xsl:template match="B">
     <pre><xsl:value-of select="@y" /></pre>
   </xsl:template>
if you want to preserve white space.

Otherwise you need (with XSLT 1.0) a recursive template that processes 
@y and takes the string before a line break and wraps it into a HTML p 
element, then calls itself with the remaining string.
