If you just want to display some static text that is different on the first page ("This is the first page") and repeats on every page after ("This is not the first page"), use something like:
<fo:layout-master-set>
<fo:simple-page-master master-name="firstPage"
page-height="215mm"
page-width="278mm"
margin-top="10mm"
margin-bottom="5mm"
margin-left="10mm"
margin-right="10mm">
<fo:region-before region-name="region-before-first" extent="80mm"/>
<fo:region-after region-name="region-after-first" extent="50mm"/>
<fo:region-body margin-top="80mm" margin-bottom="50mm"/>
</fo:simple-page-master>
<fo:simple-page-master master-name="otherPage"
page-height="215mm"
page-width="278mm"
margin-top="10mm"
margin-bottom="5mm"
margin-left="10mm"
margin-right="10mm">
<fo:region-before region-name="region-before-rest" extent="80mm"/>
<fo:region-after region-name="region-after-rest" extent="10mm"/>
<fo:region-body margin-top="80mm" margin-bottom="10mm"/>
</fo:simple-page-master>
<fo:page-sequence-master master-name="mainSequence">
<fo:repeatable-page-master-alternatives>
<fo:conditional-page-master-reference page-position="first" master-reference="firstPage"/>
<fo:conditional-page-master-reference page-position="rest" master-reference="otherPage"/>
</fo:repeatable-page-master-alternatives>
</fo:page-sequence-master>
</fo:layout-master-set>
<fo:page-sequence master-reference="mainSequence" language="en" country="us">
<fo:static-content flow-name="region-before-first">
<fo:block>This is the first page</fo:block>
</fo:static-content>
<fo:static-content flow-name="region-before-rest">
<fo:block>This is not the first page</fo:block>
</fo:static-content>
<fo:static-content flow-name="region-after-first">
<fo:block>This is the first page</fo:block>
</fo:static-content>
<fo:static-content flow-name="region-after-rest">
<fo:block>This is not the first page</fo:block>
</fo:static-content>
<fo:flow flow-name="xsl-region-body">
<!--body stuff here-->
</fo:flow>
</fo:page-sequence>
If you want the text to be based on data on the page, then you need to be creative and use markers. If you need a snip for that, let me know.
