How do I use SetText to access strings that are in an array (in xml)? Android

Question

I have a string array defined in xml:

<string-array name="question_array">                        
    <item> q1 "First string"</item>  
    <item> q2 "Second string "</item>  
</string-array>

and want to use SetText to access and display these strings. None of these variations work:

setText(R.array.question_array[counter]);
setText(R.string.question_array[counter]);
setText(R.array.question_array);
setText(R.string.question_array);

What is the proper syntax for doing this?
