What does zounds mean from shakespeare?

Or if you were saying it more straightforwardly, it might mean also "I swear" as in "believe me" as in "I swear on this bible" or "I swear on my mothers grave" or "I swear on God's wounds" or something similarly sacred. Now don't ask me where "Gadzooks" comes from. (Actually, it's from "God's hooks", the nails which fastened Jesus to the cross)

Of course, the use of these words in their right setting (such as 'Oh God, help me...' if said in a desperate prayer) is perfectly acceptable and right, but the 'casual or inappropriate use' of God's name refers solely to the expletive use as a swear word or exclamation without no real reference to God himself.
