Explanation: When King James outlawed private prayer, it created fear among the non-Separatists, who perceived the Separatists as a threat to the established church and social order. Consequently, they responded by mocking and spying on the Separatists to keep an eye on their activities and to socially ostracize them. This tension reflected the larger conflict between differing religious beliefs during that time.
