Select meta tag using c#?

This is Xml where i want to select meta tag 

              <meta charset="utf-8">
              <title>Gmail: Email from Google</title>
              <meta name="description" content="10+ GB of storage, less spam, 
               and mobile access. Gmail is email that&#39;s intuitive, efficient, and
               useful. And maybe even fun.">
              <link rel="icon" type="image/ico" href="//mail.google.com/favicon.ico">

I am doing this

            string texturl = textBox2.Text;
            string Url = "http://" + texturl;
            HtmlWeb web = new HtmlWeb();
            HtmlAgilityPack.HtmlDocument doc = web.Load(Url);

            var SpanNodes = doc.DocumentNode.SelectNodes("//meta");

            if (SpanNodes != null)
            {

                foreach (HtmlNode SN in SpanNodes)
                {

                    string text = SN.InnerText;



                        MessageBox.Show(text);


                }

meta elements are self-closing elements, meaning they have no text children (InnerText). I believe you want to get the value of the content attribute. I believe you do that using something like SN["content"], but I don't know HtmlAgilityPack.
