A quote from the Roman playwright Terence will help you remember the genitive plural of 1st declension nouns! One of the characters from Terence’s comedy Eunuchus (the Eunuch) refers to his inability to keep a secret.
Plēnus rīmārum sum, hāc atque illāc perfluō
I am full of holes; I leak at every point
So you can remember a genitive plural that was said in a play first performed in 161BCE!
