This word is usually spelled "eftsoons". It's a Middle English word, derived from "eft", which is an early form of our word "after", and "soon". It means soon after, a short time later, once again, immediately, and sometimes repeatedly.

Not to be confused with "zounds" which is a swear word, an abbreviated form of "God's wounds".
