No.1 in: 40 Mélodies Poésies françaises par Victor Wilder, Musique de Franz Abt. (c.1860)
Since this music was composed by by Franz Abt, and assuming that the translation is somehow faithful to the original text, these 2 Ave Maria songs published in 1860, may well be the melodies of Op.96 (publ. Aiblinger 1852), or Op.128/2 Ave Maria from Zwei Gedichte von W. Floto (Spina, 1854).
Until I do see a score of those songs, this remains speculation.

Lyrics:

verse1 La nuit é-tend son voi-le d'om-bre Sur le val-lon si-len-ci-eux Des murs crou-lants du cloî-tre som-bre S'é-lève un bruit mys-te-ri-eux: A-ve Ma-ri-a! A-ve Ma-ri-a!	verse 3: Les non-nes ont bais-sé leur voi-le Et se re-lè-vent len-te-ment, Mais sous l'e-pais bé-guin de toi-le, É-cla-te_en-co-re ce doux chant: A-ve Ma-ri-a! A-ve Ma-ri-a!
verse 2: La vitre est rouge et flam-boy-an-te, Les cier-ges pleu-rent sur l'au-tel, L'en-cense pé-til-le, l'or-gue chan-te, Et la pri-è-re monte au ciel: A-ve Ma-ri-a! A-ve Ma-ri-a!	verse 4: La nef de-meu-re so-li-tai-re, Mais l'or-gue sem-ble_en-core gron-der, Tout en joig-nant leurs mains de pièr-re, Les Saints par-rais-sent ré-pé-ter: A-ve Ma-ri-a! A-ve Ma-ri-a!
