What Does the Ghost Mean When He Tells Hamlet That He Was Killed "in the blossoms of my sin"...(lines 83-86)

What does the ghost mean when he tells Hamlet that he was killed “in the blossoms of my sin / Unhouseled, disappointed, unaneled. / No reckoning made, but sent to my account / With all my imperfections on my head” (lines 83 – 86)? Don't simply summarize this passage but elaborate on what an untimely death can mean to King Hamlet's eternal outcome/point of view.
