  gratia 

full of grace

grace is a participation in the life of God, in His Triune Life;

it is pure love, totally unselfish, a kind of perfect friendship; Our Lady has more grace than anyone else.

 

Ave Maria, gratia plena, Dominus tecum;
benedicta tu in mulieribus
et benedictus ventris tui, Jesus.

Hail, Mary, full of grace, the Lord is with thee;

and blessed is the fruit of thy womb, Jesus.
