Create xml file using a content from another xml file
I need to create a xml file(master.xml) with contents from another xml files(children). I have below list of xml files in a temporary location (C:/temp/xmls)

Code:
1. child1.xml
2. child2.xml

Below is the content of the child1.xml & child2.xml files,
child1.xml
Code:
<root>
    <emp>
          <name>sam</name>
         <rollno>10</rollno>
    </emp>
</root>

child2.xml
Code:
<dept>
    <emp-dep>
          <name>sam</name>
         <dname>dept1</dname>
    </emp-dep>
</dept>

Now i need to create the master.xml using the content of the above two child xmls. Below is the expected output of master.xml
Code:
<master>
    <root>
           <emp>
                 <name>sam</name>
                 <rollno>10</rollno>
           </emp>
    </root>
    <dept>
          <emp-dep>
                 <name>sam</name>
                <dname>dept1</dname>
        </emp-dep>
     </dept>
</master>

Please help to do this using shell scripting.
