Full text: 

O Maria nullam tam gravem possumus habere culpam pro qua apud filium tuum non possis impetrare veniam nihilque est impossibile tibi apud filium tuum quem genuisti de tuo sacro corpore, mater misericordiae. 

 

English translation: 

O Mary, no guilt of ours can be so great that you cannot ask your Son forgiveness for us. Nothing is impossible for you to obtain from your Son, to whom you gave birth from your holy body, Mary, mother of pity.

Further notes: 

MACEY 1996 notices the difference between the text published by Petrucci in MotettiLQ and that in I-Mfd [4], and regards the presence of what he calls “Galeazzo’s verset” (i.e. "Maria mater gratiae/mater misericordiae") in the latter as evidence for a connection between Josquin’s Vultum tuum cycle and Duke Galeazzo Sforza.
