She said she would if he didn't remind her of her father. I can't say if it's true or not but it seems as if she has some womanly feelings to feel bad for killing someone who reminds her of her father.
What does Shakespeare mean by the word wouldst?
In Middle English the second person singular had a completely different set of pronouns and verb forms from the second person plural. In Early Modern English, people started using the plural form for the singular as being more polite, and only used the old singular form for special cases, such as lovers talking, people talking to servants, children or dogs, and so on. These forms are still around but are quite rare. By Shakespeare's day, this process was well advanced, but Shakespeare's country dialect was a little old-fashioned for his day. He uses the older pronoun thou and the verb forms that go with it (all of which end in -st) more often than his contemporaries. This is so you will know that whenever you see a word in Shakespeare or the King James Bible which looks like an ordinary verb with -st on the end, you will know that it is that same word, only in use with a "thou" which you will find nearby. For an example, "thou wouldst" means "you would" (providing you are only talking about one person), "thou canst" means "you can", "thou hadst" means "you had" and so on and on.

The death of Peter is not mentioned in the Bible and is known only from writings of early Church fathers and tradition.
