Get the parent/root element (herafter called parent).

use:

java.util.List content =  parent.getChildren()

or:

java.util.List content =  parent.getMixedContent()

and insert it into the content list at the desired possition
using normal list metods.

See the doc for the difference between getChildren() and getMixedContent().
