It means over. As in words like "can't" the apostrophe stands for an omitted letter, in this case v.
O'er is short for "over".
The apostrophe indicates a missing letter, in this case "v".
Much of Shakespeare's writing is in the form of poetry. "O'er" was pronounced as one syllable, not two as in "over".
