"First" and "last" apparently mean "top" and "bottom" to you. Since the 
$variable column is character, and ordering is typically done by setting levels 
of factors, try:

d_result$variable <- factor(d_result$variable, 
levels=rev(unique(d_result$variable)))


# changes ordering so the "Item 1"'s are at the top.

I don't think you can relevel a character column.

You probably could use relevel sinc `value` was a factor but I found it easier 
to simply repeat the relevelling code and change the target column name:

d_result$value <- factor(d_result$value, levels=rev(unique(d_result$value)))

I did find the appearance of the final result stange because there was 
irregular use of "\n" in the "variable" character values. that created more 
items than I think you wanted to appear.
