perdiction

eternal death or damnation

(from ecclesiastical Latin "perditio" meaning destruction)

Nostradamous seems to have known that his soul was headed for hell (perdiction).

he beseeches his infant son never to dabble in such practices for, he says, they desiccate the body, disturb the mind, and send the soul to perdition.
