The quote describes a perilous situation where the speaker was to be executed because of political intrigues, but a woman risked her life to save his.
The phrase is a richly figurative one, and it appears to be set in a time of brutal and dangerous courtly politics. Basically, the quote recounts a situation where the speaker has been caught up in dangerous political intrigues ('fatting amongst those Savage courtiers') likely against his will, and is scheduled to be executed ('at the minute of my execution'). The 'she' referred to in the quote is someone who loved or cared for the speaker so much that she was willing to risk her life ('she hazarded the beating out of her own brains') to save the speaker's life ('to save mine'). This implies that she took a significant and violent action, likely causing a major commotion, with the risk of injury being fatal.

And young affection gapes to be his heir;
That fair for which love groan'd for and would die,
With tender Juliet match'd, is now not fair.
Now Romeo is beloved and loves again,
Alike betwitched by the charm of looks,
But to his foe supposed he must complain,
And she steal love's sweet bait from fearful hooks:
Being held a foe, he may not have access
To breathe such vows as lovers use to swear;
And she as much in love, her means much less
To meet her new-beloved any where:
But passion lends them power, time means, to meet
Tempering extremities with extreme sweet.
