I got this (altho' I thought you had a diff. answer in mind b/c my answer didn't register, then I realized you didn't have it set up that you could actually play the correct moves), but I got it only b/c it's from a famous game/puzzle I've seen before and luckily memorized in my own ongoing "pattern recognition" project.  Good example of how sometimes you have to clear the way for the RIGHT piece to get in there and finish the job.

Thanks for posting.

A nice puzzle, but when a king stands in such position a mate is very expected.

For me, sacrificing a major piece tends to stifle further consideration of that move paticularly where additional major pieces are exposed to risk and also given up.  This is a good example of the need to look beyond the apparent. 

Thanks for sharing.

This puzzle didn't work for me. The first move wouldn't register.
