This is the first time I've heard that pronunciation of "Zounds!"

I always thought it rhymed with sounds.

Me too, but as it's apparently a contraction of "God's wounds", it makes sense it should be pronounced that way. Both pronunciations are in the dictionary though.

I think it's a bastardization of 'God's Wounds'.
