Render a Genshi template. A method should be passed in as part of the
    kwargs. If no method is passed in, xml is assumed. Valid methods are:

    .. code-block:

        - xml
        - xhtml
        - html
        - text
        - newtext
        - oldtext

    Note that the ``text`` method will call ``NewTextTemplate``. If ``oldtext``
    is desired, it must be called explicitly

    :rtype: A Python data structure
