I have a problem parsing/mapping a xml response from a API.

I would like to get the id numer of a keyword when the keyword.text is
like 'Engels'

So i would like search in the xml response for the text 'Engels' than
i would like to have the 'href' that belongs to that keyword. In this
case http://www.wrts.nl/api/keywords/84576, i actually only need the
id numer because than i can make a new request to the api with that
information.

The xml-response looks like this:

<?xml version=\"1.0\" encoding=\"UTF-8\"?>\n<keyword-index>\n
<keyword href=\"http://www.wrts.nl/api/keywords/83212\";>Duits</keyword>
\n
<keyword href=\"http://www.wrts.nl/api/keywords/84576\";>Engels</
keyword>\n
<keyword href=\"http://www.wrts.nl/api/keywords/84562\";>Franconville</
keyword>\n
<keyword href=\"http://www.wrts.nl/api/keywords/83711\";>Frans</keyword>
\n
<keyword href=\"http://www.wrts.nl/api/keywords/108275\";>FRvmbo1ldt</
keyword>\n
<keyword href=\"http://www.wrts.nl/api/keywords/85763\";>Groep 4</
keyword>\n
<keyword href=\"http://www.wrts.nl/api/keywords/84571\";>Kapitel 1</
keyword>\n
<keyword href=\"http://www.wrts.nl/api/keywords/83213\";>klas 2</
keyword>\n
<keyword href=\"http://www.wrts.nl/api/keywords/84563\";>Leerjaar 1</
keyword>\n
<keyword href=\"http://www.wrts.nl/api/keywords/84570\";>leerjaar 1 h/
v</keyword>\n
<keyword href=\"http://www.wrts.nl/api/keywords/84572\";>Lektion 1</
keyword>\n
<keyword href=\"http://www.wrts.nl/api/keywords/83725\";>Uitgever</
keyword>\n
<keyword href=\"http://www.wrts.nl/api/keywords/84578\";>unit 1</
keyword>\n
<keyword href=\"http://www.wrts.nl/api/keywords/84564\";>Unit\xC3\xA9
1</keyword>\n
<keyword href=\"http://www.wrts.nl/api/keywords/85762\";>Woordpakket
1a</keyword>\n
</keyword-index>\n"


How should i do this? Do i need to parse the xml first, or is there a
way to search in the xml directly?

Thank you in advance,
Regards Lasse
