How to access HTML source from Android WebView?

Question

I have a simple browser app. It loads some IP and displays it using WebView. I want to access the source code of the loaded URL and store into Android string so I can use it.

For an example :

Suppose it is loaded 10.0.0.1 and the webpage shows this.

So, I want to store that "HELLO THERE". And further want to process if string is equal to "HELLO THERE", a toast will be shown.

I managed to load the URL, and I know how to make Toast. The problem is, I am not able to store that "HELLO THERE" in string.
