To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:

On the anniversary of the wreck they are said to return and sink again and appear at other times before gales. Whoever touches the sunken ships will be drawn down to them and no sailor or fisherman would tempt fate by venturing near them as they sail out of the harbor. (Cunningham, Traditional Tales of the English and Scottish Peasantry, p. 338.) Even more dreadful is the spectral ship seen in the same waters which is said to doom to wreck and disaster the ship which it ap- proaches. It is the ...ghostly carrier of a bridal party wrecked mali- ciously, (lb., 288.) Here we come upon a phase of the widespread belief that no spirit which has been freed by violent death can be at rest. Soldiers in ghostly armor tread many a battlefield.
Haunted houses echo with the footfalls of the murdered mas- ters, and here on the spectral ship of the Solway, the sailor and his bride await the ebbing of the last tide. (Compare "The Spectre of the Dan-no-oura Roads" by Naryoshi Songery in Ann.
Pop. Trad., 1887.) Another form of the legend however, as encountered off the eastern coast of South America is even nearer in essential details to the story of Dahul.
