In 1839, he married the wealthy widow Mrs. Wyndham Lewis, who was born Mary Anne Evans in 1792, and who died in 1872.

 

On May 15, 1846, Benjamin Disraeli delivered his The Cause of England Speech on the third reading of the Corn Importation Bill, in which he targets Robert Peel.

 

Disraeli became prime minister in 1868, which put his term under the reign of  Queen Victoria.

 

On April 3, 1872, Disraeli delivered his speech Sanitas Sanitatum, Omnia Sanitas at Manchester.

 

Disraeli became once again prime minister in 1874.
