Above I've posted a general sequence with annotations which gives the rundown of the essential themes of this basic checkmate. This should prove helpful in getting a handle on it.

An addendum: on move #18 of my last post, I made a typo - I wrote 'mating move' instead of waiting move. Sorry, but I'm sure you understood anyways.
Cheers!
