   • c. 100 CE – c. 130 CE, Juvenal, Satires 14.129:

     Servōrum ventrēs modiō castīgat inīquō
     ipse quoque ēsuriēns, neque enim omnia sustinet umquam
     mūcida caeruleī pānis cōnsūmere frūsta,
     hesternum solitus mediō servāre minūtal
     Septembrī nec nōn differre in tempora cēnae
     alterius conchem aestīvam cum parte lacertī
     signātam vel dīmidiō putrīque silūrō
     fīlaque sectīvī numerāta inclūdere porrī.

     • 1881 translation by Lewis Evans

       While he is famishing himself, he pinches his servants' stomachs with the scantiest allowance, for he never endures to consume the whole of the blue fragments of mouldy bread, but saves, even in the middle of September, the mince of yesterday; and puts by till to-morrow's dinner the summer bean, with a piece of stockfish and half a stinking shad: and, after he has counted them, locks up the shreds of chopped leek.

2. (chiefly in the plural) trifles (petty things)

Third-declension noun (neuter, “pure” i-stem).
