Standardised text incipit: 
Ave virgo gloriosa Maria mater gratiae
Liturgical/devotional association: 
Marian feasts and observances
Full text: 

Ave virgo gloriosa,
Maria mater gratiae,
Ave gemma pretiosa,
Mater misericordiae. 

O Maria florens rosa
Tu nos ab hoste protege
Esto nobis gratiosa
Et hora mortis suscipe.

O gloriosa domina,
Excelsa super sidera, 
Qui te creavit provide,
Lactasti sacro ubere.

Quod Eva tristis abstulit 
Tu reddis almo germine
Intrent ut astra flebiles
Caeli fenestra facta es.

O Maria mater gratiae,
Mater misericordiae.

English translation: 

Hail glorious virgin,
Mary mother of grace
hail precious gem,
mother of mercy.

O Mary flowering rose
protect us from the enemy
be gracious to us
and sustain us on the hour of death.

O glorious mistress
high beyond the stars
the one who created you providentially
you fed with the holy breast.

That which the sad Eve took away
you give back through the fertile bud,
so that the miserable people may access the heavens
you were made the window of the sky.

O Mary mother of grace
mother of mercy.

 

Correspondences in standard ref works: 

Maria mater gratiae mater misericordiae tu nos ab hoste protege et hora mortis suscipe = De beata Maria V., Ad Primam et Tertiam, AH 12, No. 72, p. 48, st. 1 (see also No. 73, p. 49, st. 3)
mater gratiae] plena gratiae 

O gloriosa ... ubere = hymn verse for the Assumption of Mary (Cantus ID 008375e)

Quod Eva ... facta es = hymn verse for the Assumption of Mary (Cantus ID 008375f)

Further notes: 

The first two strophes alternate verses of two different texts. The even verses create a strophe which is included in different Marian hymns (see also MACEY 1996, 165); the odd ones, which remind different hymn verses, do not constitute, however, an indipendent strophe.

The text in I-Mfd 1 and I-Mfd 2 lacks the last line and ends with “O Maria mater gratiae”. According to MACEY 1996, 182, “The correct text seems to have been corrupted by the scribe who copied it into the two Milanese choirbooks around 1490 and later”. MACEY specifies that the text is complete in GB-Lcm 1070, I-Fr Ms. 2794, I-Rvat CS 46 and MotettiA (the only concordances cited in the article).
