"Zounds!” (4)

I believe the answer is:

egad

(Other definitions for egad that I've seen before include "Old exclamation; aged (anagram)" , "Forgotten curse" , "Mild oath - aged (anag)" , "Archaic expression of anger, surprise, etc" , "Old oath" .)

I've seen this clue in the King Feature Syndicate, The New York Times, The Wall Street Journal, the LA Times and the Universal.
